Turner Valley Oil and Gas Inc (TVOG)

I would argue that a circumstantial case can be made for a pump and dump.

There has been a TREMENDOUS amount of hype with ZERO results. Yes, the form 10k was filed, but wasn't the most recent SEC filing rejected? I think it was eventually accepted, but that is still a yellow flag (at best).

The strongest case for a pump and dump is that none of the promises have come to fruition. Were tankers acquired? I remember that was the hottest talking point. "Network 1 is going to fund $25 million and we can buy tankers" Has that happened? I see no evidence.

In addition, what about these "acquisitions"? Ostensibly some Tennessee asphalt company was purchased, but by whom? Maybe it was TVOG, but I highly doubt it. Steve Helm please correct me if I am wrong.

Also, this a Tim Smith deal. He has a history of pump and dump. Search Timothy Clayton Smith and you will find a laundry list of pump and dump and investors losing their entire investment. Why would this any different?
